Harem Scarem Mens Pants

Description

I’ve been wanting to make myself a pair of harem pants, a la Hedi Slimane’s Dior mens collection from a few years back. I chose Simplicity 4788, a sort of mens “Arabian Nights” costume pattern. I took about 5 inches off the rise, 4 off the middle, and shortened them to mid-calf.

Peter darling, you know I adore your stuff, but I I’ve got to be honest, I hate these trousers! Not these ones in particular, I just hate this style of trousers and believe that the only people that can get away with wearing them are Kate Moss or Siena Miller and even so… I’d like to have harsh words with MC Hammer because of them… well and his singing too of course. lol. Still, they have an element of fun and you are my HERO for wearing them. Look forward to seeing more of you. xx
